Black Lodge Trivia Night

Down a Patrick, things get saucy when Matt and Art discuss getting horny... for RPGs. What it means, how it happens, and what makes it unique (among other things). The inadvertent double entendres come fast and heavy. Join us on our Discord: https://discord.gg/tQGJVsrnNp

Down a Patrick, Matt and Art remember that Black Lodge Trivia Night is a TTRPG Actual Play podcast first and dive into a zero session for Swords of the Serpentine from Pelgrane Press. The first half is more of a Bookhouse Boys discussion of the setting and the Gumshoe system as a whole and the second half covers the creation of Art's PC.

Quick note... this is not going to start immediately. There will be a stretch in the relatively near future (probably November-ish?) where it's just going to be Matt and Art and they wanted to have something at the ready they were both excited about.
